Drync Support for Apple Pay Lets Wine Lovers Make Purchases With the Touch of a Finger

BOSTON, Nov. 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Drync today became the first wine app to offer Apple Pay, allowing users to quickly and securely buy and have their wine delivered.

Drync, the first free full-featured wine discovery and e-commerce app, allows people to buy nearly any wine by simply snapping a photo of the label. Drync identifies most labels within a few seconds, using state-of-the-art image recognition and a database of more than two million wines.

The latest app release, now available on the App Store, brings the security and privacy of Apple Pay to Drync customers purchasing from a catalog of 30,000 wines - more than 20x the selection at most wine shops. Apple Pay enables instantaneous and seamless checkout with the touch of a finger, and is compatible with iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 2 and iPad Mini 3.

"Apple Pay on Drync gives wine lovers an easier way to find and buy their wine in 30 seconds or less," said Brad Rosen, Drync's CEO. "This creates an even faster checkout experience, further streamlining the convenience of buying wine the moment you discover it, so you can get back to enjoying the wine."

Drync also helps people discover new wines with more than 1 million expert and user reviews, as well as hand-crafted lists of wines in topical categories. Users can easily learn about wines and then share, notate, and buy for delivery.

Security and privacy is at the core of Apple Pay. When you add a credit or debit card with Apple Pay, the actual card numbers are not stored on the device nor on Apple servers. Instead, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted and securely stored in the Secure Element on your device. Each transaction is authorized with a one-time unique dynamic security code, instead of using the security code from the back of your card.
